Prominent among the Indictments Is one against Joseph Steger, charging perjury in connection with statements made In County Court last July during trial of Barbara Steger, Alex Goobeck and himself on a public nuisance charge.

Norton of the Volunteers of America and Patrolman Louis Palkovic examine door through which thieves broke to loot the Red Cross warehouse in State street of flour and canned goods stored there for needy of Broome county. Service Started by Red Cross Founder When She Sought James P. Butterfield in Civil War Times Still Maintained Fire Destroys 2 Cottages at Broad Acres Bucket Brigade Unable to Save Structure on River Bank Cites Lusk's Own Statement; Decision May Require Weeks Albany, Nov. 18 (Associated Press) Arguing against the appeals of three directors of the closed State Bank of Binghamton who were convicted of making a false report to the State Banking Department with Intent to deceive.

Assistant Attorney General John T. Cahill told the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court today that its decision was bound to be far-reaching. The court withheld decision, which is not expected to be announced for several weeks. The directs. State Regent Thomas J.

Mangan, Sigmund A. Friedlander and Elmer J. Church-Ill, were prosecuted by the attorney general's office upon order of Governor Roosevelt last spring after the -bank closed with a loss to Its depositors. The directors' appeal was on the ground that they were not criminally responsible for the false report. "We have never had a decision In this state on this point" Mr.

Cahill told the Ave judges of the court, as they sat with piles of the trial court record and photostatic reproductions of the closed bank's records before them. "There may never be another situation where the evidence Is as clear as It Is in this one. "If we are to place the stamp of approval upon these directors for keeping quiet about the status of that bank when they knew what It was, then the statute (304 of the penal law) is meaningless." Mr. Cahill contended that the directors must have known that a preponderant amount of the bank's money was being disbursed by President Andrew J. Horvatt.

The latter fled the day the bank closed, but subsequently surrendered and Is serving a state prison sentence. Former State Senator Clayton R. Lusk, representing Mangan and Churchill, insisted that the directors "never had anything to do with any part of the management of this bank." Young Herman Friedlander of New York, a practicing lawyer for only a year, made his first appearance before the Appellate Division to argue his father's case. He set forth that the original demurrers to the Indictments against the directors should have been sustained and that the state's bill of particulars did not fully Inform the directors of the charges against them. In answer to Mr.

Cahlll's question why he had not put Horvatt on the stand as a witness, Mr. Lusk replied that he "did not need him, and God knows I did not want to put him on unless I had to." At one point, Mr. Cahill set forth that the three directors, who owed the bank more than the amount of their deposits there when it closed, had left the bank unsecured on loans. 'What about the large real estate holdings of Friedlander," one of the judges asked. "I understand," Mr.

Cahill replied, "that the State Banking department is about satisfied that it won't realize anything at all." To meet Mr. Lusk's, statement that the atmosphere in the Binghamton courtroom at the time of the trial was unfavorable to the defendants. Mr. Cahill read from the record a statement of Mr. Lusk to the court that the court had been "more than fair to me." Another of the judges asked Mr.

Cahill whether it was true that 3100,000 had been stolert from the bank before it was changed from a private Institution to the State Rank of Binghamton In 1924. Mr. Cahill said he believed such was the case, but that he was not sure. "Why didn't the bank examiners find that out. If It was stolen?" the Judge asked.

The case was concluded with young Frtedlander's argument. Mr. Lusk told the court Thursday that Horvatt was responsible for the false reports, and that Mangan, Churchill and Friedlander were victims of circumstance. "Why, It's the only time in my life that I ever saw or heard of a hank where everybody In the bank was crooked, with the exception of the telephone operator," he exclaimed. He said "the amazing, the unbelievable" part of it was that "these directors were Innocent of any part in the wrongdoing." Mr.

Cahill, who during the trial of the case In Binghamton, charged that Horvatt was a bootlegger on a large scale and used hank funds to purchase liquor, scoffed at attempts of the defense to show that Hor-vatt's liquor transactions were wholly legal. "That place (a speakeasy near the bank) was known to the man 4n the street as 'Horvatt's Mr. (Conflmrd an Pl Thirty) Mrs. Hungerford and Mrs. Engelbert Head Group's Volunteers Booth workers In the sixteenth annual roll-call of the Red Cross are ahead of the quota set for the week of campaigning.
